Some Upcoming Public Concerts;
Friday Feb. 7 - The Imagine Museum 5-8PM. Come join us
at our inaugural performance at the wonderful Imagine Museum.
We've been playing at many private parties and Condominiums

I could better at updating our website. Apologies. There is an
inverse relationship between how many events we play, and
how often I remember to do this. The busier we are, the less I
remember to update the site.
About Us
First of all – we love what we do.
We love connecting with audiences and sharing the emotions and the memories that only music can provide.
Music has the ability to transcend time. It takes us to another place and situation. It reminds us of someone, or some event - and hopefully it makes us smile. That is what the St Pete Sax Quartet hopes to do at each performance. We are four local saxophone players who formed the St Pete Sax Quartet with the goal of bringing The American Songbook to the public. Recently featured at the Dali Museum, the St Pete Yacht Club and The James Museum, we bring our special style of music to a variety of audiences and venues.
What makes us unique is that we represent the entire contemporary saxophone family. A saxophone quartet is similar to a string quartet or a church choir. We have a Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Baritone saxophone – all combine to play popular tunes from the last 100 years. This combination of music is what is known as The American Songbook.
Our arrangements include features for individual saxophones as well as combinations that bring the four of us together in jazz improvisation and warm harmonies. As just four musicians, we enjoy the intimacy of connecting with our audience and encourage singing and clapping along with us. If you happen to have been present at one of our performances you may recall that we really like to engage our audience. Music should be fun, and we hope you have fun at our performance.
